How do you see how many games in progress for each game?

[PegasusDragon1]

You used to be able to click on view all tables then it listed all games in order.

Help. I also cannot find the list of games in progress since new interface. Where is it. Thanks for any help

It's still there, it's just a little harder to find.

If you go to the page for the specific game and look at the rightmost tab (the section that says "Latest Update", "ELO Ranking", and shows a table / pictures of the game), the first tab with the "table symbol" has a small hyperlink at the bottom that says "Watch a game in progress (### games)". If you click that, you'll see the active tables. However, it's in the Games In Progress style view, so you won't see player elo from there. The pages are listed in batches of 20 games per page and there are small arrows to navigate pages.

You can also find it by going directly to the url https://boardgamearena.com/gametables?game=### substituting the ### for the game name or game number. For example game=1 or game=carcassonne will show all active tables for Carcassonne.

Hope that helps!!

Unless I did it wrong, that's not it.
It would be a list that would show all games in descending order of # of active games

Ark Nova: 7,712
Wingspan: 6,023
Azul: 5,982

Etc...

Agreed. That was not it. Where is the list of all games being played. Like Pegasus has listed. Ark nova was always at top. Big list all games. Real time and turn based. Where did it go. Help please

[Cappa]

yep seems to be gone...

this is what it should look like

Unfortunately, the only place that had the list of games you're talking about is the old Games In Progress page. Even if you use the Wayback Machine, it will only tell you the number of the games in progress at the time the page was snapped. The only way to see other games in progress now is by going to each game individually. It was a handy feature but it's gone.

Yeah I liked having that list visible. Bummer.

What was the real use of that list, outside pure curiosity about stats ? I never really understood the use for it

I'm sure this page was visited quite often by hobbysts, it was quite useful to see games popularity, what were the hits/flop. Not mentioning it was a convenient where you could easily see at a glance which game were good for real-time, and which weren't..
